“Trainer Takeover” Sneaker Illustrations by Josh Parkin

Remember those Nike illustrations from the sketchbook of Josh Parkin? The illustrator’s talents extent beyond the world of Swoosh, as he’s gone back to the drawing board and come back with this series entitled “Trainer Takeover”. Models drawn include the New Balance 1500, Nike Air Flow, adidas Gazelle, and more. There doesn’t appear to be a unfying theme amongst them, but each model is re-imagined at super scale, some of them as bumper cars and others as space ships. Stay with us through the jump to see each shot and let us know if you like Josh Parkin’s cartoony approach to these footwear legends.
